The Reality of NIL in CFB Recruiting Today
Thanks for writing today's article for discussion! Your perspective helps me to understand the NIL better. I feel your ending sums up why Oregon and Coach Lanning and his staff are so successful. "NIL opens the door for programs to recruit top athletes, but it is not the thing that wins a recruiting battle. It is still about building relationships and selling the program."

OC Stein’s Oregon Offense: Capitalizing on a Strength
Great analysis Mr. FishDuck! So much to look at and study. Slow down the playback speed to .5 and zero in on different players. Running it over several times makes it easy to see the genius of the play design. You said, "I love this play, as B1G linebackers are going to be a tough bunch..." Our running backs are taught not only the correct foot path, but to read where the linebacker chooses to attack. Watch the play again and see what that linebacker chose. No matter what he chooses he's wrong because of the vision of the running back. He goes to the right and the RB reads it and goes to the left of Conerly. Yes indeed it will be fun to watch our offense this fall!

2024: Do A Plethora of Preseason Polls Properly Predict the Playoff?
Great ponderings Jon! Thanks for laying out those possibilities. Too many for this poor soul to contemplate. We can only hope that strength of schedule will be included in a committees decision, and a true seeding by by results on the field occurs. Thanks again Jon!

Oregon’s Will Stein Offense: Power Runs Deep
Thanks Mr. FishDuck! I simply love all the video analysis you provide. This is a great series. You are correct that Coach Stein will have constraint plays off of this. Just think of a running QB on a keeper to the backside of this play. In my old Wing T days we would call a Waggle (pass play off a power run) and our QB would run for long yards. I am loving this Will Stein offense!
